HOLIDAY FEASTING
Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day, play a game of flag football in the morning - regardless of whether you play or not. Running around competitively will put your body in a better state before feasting in the evening.
If and only if you can't get a game together, then make sure you get a make-up workout in before Thanksgiving dinner.
In regards to Thanksgiving dinner:
- Drink lots of water. Go light on the booze.
- Eat nuts before the main meal. The poly- and monounsaturated fats will help you feel satiated and will help with digestion.
- The earlier you eat dinner, the better.
- Eat plenty of turkey.
- Eat plenty of salad.
- Go easy on the mashed potatoes, stuffing, creamed corn, and gravy. A little bit is fine. If you've made progress fitness wise, then you deserve it. Just keep in mind that your body and your goals will have to deal with the consequences.
- Go easy on the desert. Again, a little bit is fine and deserved if you've been working hard and got your workout in this morning.
